First year students participate in orientation activities during Marhaba week at NYU Abu Dhabi.

Memories of Marhaba

September 15, 2014

As Marhaba 2014 drew to a close, the members of NYU Abu Dhabi's Class of 2018 gathered to reflect on their university experiences thus far. They were asked: Years from now when you think about Marhaba, what will you remember? Here's what just a few anonymous freshmen had to say.

About the people

Meeting some of the most amazing people I will ever meet at the dining halls.

The overwhelming number of new friends.

How I'm surrounded by people that are so loving and talented and all around amazing!

The team spirit that is in everyone.

Meeting people who know people I know and realizing it's a small world.

People, heat, and even more awesome people!

How much all faculty and administration and RAs took care of us and were extra nice and helpful. I never ever in my wildest dreams expected such a warm welcome.

Meeting the most amazing people from around the world.

Not even thinking about where to sit at meals because everyone treats you like a friend.
